A Democratic congressman is attributing his partys losses in the 2010 election cycle to the fact that President Barack Obama is black.

Speaking to Arab television network Alhurra, Rep. Jim Moran (D-Va.) said Republicans made big gains in November because a lot of people in this country dont want to be governed by an African-American.

Even more objectionable to some Americans, he said, is that Obama is a black president who is inclusive, who is liberal, who wants to spend money on everyone and who wants to reach out to include everyone in our society  thats a basic philosophical clash.

Morans remarks came Tuesday in an interview conducted after Obama delivered his State of the Union speech. Democrats, Moran said, lost for the same reason the Civil War Happened in the United States the Southern states, particularly the slaveholding states, didnt want to see a president who was opposed to slavery. Virginia, of course, is one of those Southern, formerly slaveholding states.

Moran has gotten in trouble for his off-the-cuff remarks in the past. In 2007, he alleged that the extraordinarily powerful pro-Israel lobby played a major role in promoting the U.S. war in Iraq. A strong supporter of his districts Muslim community, Moran faced criticism from Jewish groups in 2003 for saying that then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was visiting Washington probably seeking a warrant from President Bush to kill at will with weapons weve paid for.

All the hate, racism, classism, envy, greed and handout mentality from the left is bound to cause a loss every now and then, but January’s loss was fear driven. People are afraid there won’t be anything left to salvage after Barry is through screwing it up. You can paint it any color you want, and it still comes up a steaming pile of crap.

What ever happened to "politics ends at the water's edge?"

This traitorous b@stard should be kicked hard and frequently in his groin.

Note that the only politicians and pundits who slam the USA to and/or from abroad are liberals.

Hey Moran, Obama crawled out of a white va-ja-ja and was raised by white people. As if anyone cares! I cetainly don't. The American public has been accepting and admiring people that are 100% black for decades. Jesse Owens, Martin Luther King Jr., etc, etc. We don't give a damn about skin color. My theory is that Obama got elected because people saw a black president on the TV show "24" and thought "hey, why not". Unfortunately, nobody figured out or wanted to figure out that Obama just has no skills other than reading off glass panels. He is a lightweight and a joke.

Obama has done more to screw up race relations than any person in American history. It is sad that he has messed up things to the point that there will be no more black or partially black presidents for generations. What an opportunity he had but it turns out he was nothing more than a thug who could read and speak.
